Galvin knew that Kristel often visited the hospital to meet her professors. Before, it did not bother him, but now he is curious as hell about what she’s doing when he is not around.“Kristel, what’s the matter?”“Good morning, Doctor Miller. Are you heading home from your night shift?”“Yes. But I don’t mind assisting you. What’s wrong?” Doctor Miller offered the chair in front of her table. Kristel and Galvin took a seat.“She vomited while having breakfast.” Galvin beat Kristel to answer the doctor’s question.Both Kristel and Doctor Miller didn’t expect Galvin to be excited. Although the former who the doctor interrogated, it was he who diligently answered the interview.Observing him, Kristel had the illusion that Galvin was actually paying attention to her. But her bubble thoughts went off when the doctor shot the next question.“When is your last period, Kristel?”Kristel was prepared to lie. However, Galvin answered again. He looked at Kristel and said, “I don’t remember the l

“Don’t be childish, Kristel,” said Galvin after seeing her shedding tears.‘I am childish?’ Kristel had rendered speechless, then sneered in her heart, but she did not retort immediately. She lowered her gaze to mask the pain in her eyes.After mere seconds, she pulled herself together and wiped the tears staining her face. If this had happened in an ordinary condition, there’s no way she would cry at Galvin’s impassive treatment.However, ever since she was pregnant, she could no longer control her emotions, and he mistakenly believed she was putting up with an act.In all honesty, she holds no control over her mood swings. It will kick out all of a sudden, any time throughout the day; thus, she needs to keep it in check.Regardless, she won’t blame Galvin entirely. Besides, she has no plan to look pitiful before him. She’s no pushover.Composed, Kristel raised her head, meeting Galvin’s accusing gaze. Sadness flashed through her eyes as needles punctured her heart and went numb.She

DIAMOND EAST CLUBWhen stepping into the club again, such emotion enveloped Kristel’s chest.She used to hang out in this club with her friends.But she no longer actively socializes since she signed the marriage contract and dedicated her time as an excellent wife to Galvin.Her friends, who are clueless that she got married to a handsome billionaire, wondered why she vanished on the face of the earth.Most of the time, when she was invited to hang out at their favorite coffee shop, she always turned them down, as she was only keen to keep the house organized, and there was a warm meal she prepared for Galvin.Nonetheless, her main reason for declining is that Galvin would give her different tasks any time of the day, which she willingly took part in.It always thrilled her to obey him as satisfaction exhibited on his face before he left for work the following day.She is inclined to do all the venereal activity that comes to his mind, hoping she can steal his love.Her world has onl

After a couple of hours, she fell asleep. She was roused from her deep slumber when Galvin kissed her passionately. He noticed she woke up. She had no strength to resist him when his hand was all over her.Kristel woke up early in the morning despite her discomfort from the other night’s intense intimacy with Galvin.But she needs to make a hangover soup. It worried her that Galvin would suffer discomfort in his stomach after consuming so much alcohol last night.‘Why did he get drunk, anyway?’ It’s been a long time since the last time he drowned himself with alcohol.Kristel sat up and stared at the man sleeping peacefully on the other side of the bed. She was afraid to wake him up. He might torment her again; thus, she was cautious about getting off the bed.She went to the bathroom and washed up. She was putting her clothes in the walk-in closet when she heard a woman sobbing.At first, she was frightened whether the person she heard was a ghost. However, the woman spoke, and she r

That morning, Kristel visited her parents since it was the weekend. Her dad always stayed home and accompanied her mom, except for essential gatherings, which the couple attended together.However, the day she married Galvin, she rarely came home, and sometimes her parents would complain.Her parents thought the marriage was simply a business deal; thus, they expected little of this marriage to be harmonious since Galvin never introduced their daughter to the public.What’s important to them is the Hudson matriarch accepts Kristel, and they witness how the older lady is fond of their daughter.Unbeknownst to them, Kristel loved Galvin so dearly that she couldn’t part with him even a day.Even though the marriage had just started with a bet and terms, she didn’t want to miss her chance to make him fall in love with her. Thus, she did her best to become a good wife.“Sweetheart, you’re here!” Eliza was elated upon seeing her daughter entering the door. She met Kristel halfway and hugged
